Title: The Wyndham Legacy
Series: The Legacy Trilogy - BOOK I
Description:
Marcus Wyndham never asked to become the Earl of Chase. The Duchess never asked to be illegitimate. And neither of these two asked that their fates become so entwined.
--
Marcus is passionate, quick to rage, just as quick to laughter. He's tough, opinionated, domineering, known as the devil's own son. The Duchess is serene and aloof--she has silence down to a fine art. She is always in control, her smiles as rare as bawdy jests in the pulpit. She is self-reliant once she realizes that a very special talent can make her so, a talent no one suspects.
--
Surrounding this unlikely pair are three servants cast in the Shakespearean mold: Spears, Badger, and Maggie--all cocky, smart, good plotters and better friends, who don't know the meaning of subservient.
